Training Course for Spray Foam Insulation Launches

A NEW TRAINING course offering a spray foam training qualification has been launched by a Cornish company.

Spray Foam Training Ltd is offering a new Spray Foam Insulation Applicator NVQ Level 3 Diploma. Students who enrol this year will be among the first to be awarded the qualifications in the world.

“This certification is long overdue in the industry so it’s a tremendous honour to be the first to offer it,” commented Steve Jewell, CEO of Spray Foam Training.

“Spray foam insulation has been around for decades and is already providing increased comfort and energy efficiency in countless homes across the country, so it’s great to finally be able to provide an official qualification in its application and installation.”

The training course’s qualification is awarded by the Awarding Body for Building Education and certifies recipients to work with spray foam in both residential and commercial settings.

Steve Jewell said, “The team who will be leading the courses are all experts in spray foam who have worked in the industry for a number of years. They’ve put the course together themselves to ensure a comprehensive, thorough learning experience that prepares learners for a lifelong career.”

The company says qualifications in applying spray foam insulation have been difficult to gain in the past. Businesses have had to invest heavily in expensive rigs in order to begin training.

“The accreditation is particularly great for those who have been working with spray foam their whole career, as well as those looking for a way into the insulation world,” said Steve Jewell. “Overall, it will really push the industry forward and bring it to the front of the public’s mind much sooner – which has always been something we felt was inevitable.”

Peter Roseveare, a tutor at Spray Foam Training, added, “Since announcing the qualification we’ve been swamped with interest from businesses.”
